[Erosion process of loess slope and influencing factors in the loess hilly-gully region, China].

, the erosion amount per unit area decreased with the increases of slope length, and there was a critical erosion slope length in 5-10 m slope section. Slope length, slope and rainfall intensity all played a promoting role in runoff process. Rainfall intensity, slope length, and their interaction contributed more to runoff yield rate and total erosion amount. Rainfall intensity contributed the most to runoff yield rate, with a contribution rate of 49.8%. The contribution rate of slope length to the total erosion was the largest, which reached 37.8%.
